It is printed with the types and upon the press of the Fairmont True Virginian, whose proprietor was lately connected with the Dispatch as "local." From its columns we learn that, contrary to the information received by Gov. Letcher, the new Constitution submitted by the bogus Wheeling Convention was ratified by the people of the new State with almost entire unanimity, and that a "ncery have been filed against various refugees. "Affidavits have been made," as a appears from the advertising columns, that Gen. T. S. Haymond, J. H. Haymond, A. F. Haymond, Henry Pride, George C. Kerr, and Chas. G. Taylor, refugees now in Eastern Virginia, are all "non-residents of the State," which false averment is somewhat explained by another order of court, in which it is stated that "William F. Drunkard is reported and believed to be in sympathy with, and aiding and abetting the rebelli
